Research Projects

In 2020 and 2021, the global economy will be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which will diminish household purchasing power, partially restrict international travel and trade (including food goods), and harm agricultural production. This uncertainty generated food supply disruptions. According to some scientists, businesspeople, and politicians, this is a warning for humanity to focus on sustainable solutions to protect natural ecosystems. Food insecurity has been a struggle for several decades and is expected to remain the world's most pressing issue in the future. The food business is currently confronted with new difficulties in terms of sustainability and the health consequences of packaging and processing practices. Consumers are looking for food goods that have been less processed but have a longer shelf life and keep nutritional and sensory properties during storage due to their desire for new and natural products as well as changes in lifestyle. These restrictions provide significant issues when dealing with perishable foods such as fruits and vegetables. Thus, edible coatings have been widely researched and explored in recent years due to their ability to increase the quality, shelf life, safety, and usefulness of coated products. Edible coatings can be applied using various procedures such as dipping, spraying, or coating to manage moisture transfer, gas exchange, or oxidative degradation. In this project proposal we focusing on three biggest problems i.e., food security, sustainability, and minimal processed.
